If you have a whitehouse.gov link you want to access and it is down, try replacing "www.whitehouse.gov" with "bidenwhitehouse.archives.gov"
The national archives is still doing its job for now.

Some historical places hit differently than others. I really appreciated the site commemorating the defeat of Ferdinand Magellan by Lapu Lapu. He was the first Filipino recognized for repelling European aggression.

Force Unleashed 2, I'm about 7 hours into the game and I'm fighting Darth Vader. That was the end of the game. So abrupt, so short, such a letdown.

The scale of this obvious fraud is absolutely unbelievable.
What are we DOING here? We're just meant to sit and act like this insane plagiarism and climate threat that requires more money than anything has ever cost is worth it? Are we meant to pretend that ChatGPT is worth this aimless, meaningless destruction of capital and our environment? For what?
Yeah I need way more money than anyone ever got before. I need it because my shit is difficult right now. But it's important in ways even I haven't been able to work out. OpenAI is a serious business. Help me. Please help me please my serious company is so good. Help me

When Hillary Clinton called MAGA supporters “deplorables,” it was in the news forever. We still talk about it today. But when Trump called his political enemies “vermin”—actually invoking the words of Adolf Hitler—the press just moves on like it’s nothing. They are failing us.
